It's a disgrace because the vast majority of frontpage Trump onanism is only there thanks to Russians' pet bots.

Every right wing piece of shit on Hillary was posted here - Breitbart and worse. You couldn't even have a decent conversation in the Hillary forum. And admin let it go on & on. The Bros co-opted the jury system and banned stuff posted by Hill supporters or even people who were undecided between the two, and they'd vote to keep posts that were disgusting, untrue and inflammatory if they were against Hill. They even hijacked the Good Reads forum and tried their best to own the AA forum. It was disgusting.

Cathartic to see people from all political stripes come together to rage against the fascist fuck.

But the frontpage is unbearable.

I find the politics sub and the Hillary sub have the most current news, and redditors cite Twitter much more often than DU does, and Twitter is where reporters tease their upcoming or just released articles. DU is better for dialoguing though.

mostly allowed for humor's sake and to keep an eye on the extreme bullshit. Some of the stuff is pretty hilarious.
